Most of the above have been regulars

extended visit. T. F. Brown while here

of rush of business at the sheriff's office.

several days and feels greatly benefited and

here for the first time and will stay as long

Der merchant, made us flying visit dur
ing the week but could not linger longer
than one day on account of the building
boom at Wichita. T. W. Fellows. accom-
panied by his sister, Miss Henrietta Fellows,

are at least two hundred and seventy five
colored people here from Arkansas City
and Winfield and no people on earth could
enjoy better time. 1t is an excursion and
picnic under the auspices of the A. NJ. E
Sunday schools of the two cities and it is
saying no more than the plain truth when
we assert that there never was collected al
Geuda Springs more orderly and better
behaved crowd. They put in the day with
